[TheList] Police Digital Rollout

Sun Aug 12 09:32:26 AEST 2012

I think Greg O'Connor may very well be a sales rep for the system
manufacturers and hardware suppliers. He probably earns a very nice
commission on the side for each sale. . . Hot ticket items such as Tasers,
every officer with a slinky side-arm, and soon to be promoted and much
needed Predator Drones supporting uplink/downlink HD Video with Hellfire
Missiles attached. 

Let's face it, you never know what kind of terrorist you're gunna find
lurking in the rangers up there in the far North; not to mention the
capability to attack and raid large Mansions if Hollywood/Obama should ever
ask Mr Key to do so again. Or Drone use in other benign day-to-day
operations like traffic control or domestic disputes. . .

But the digital system (Similar encryption to strength the CIA uses) was
sold to the public because it will stop the boy racers from listening in and
the burglars from getting away before the police arrive. Maybe it has but a
lot of money for petty crime stopping.
I agree and have to ask too HOW can we afford this. Its ongoing too you have
to pay an ongoing licensing fee for the encryption.

How many have been burgled and just had it dealt with over the phone and
been given an incident number to give to the insurance company, especially
when your car is stolen. BUT when there's a chase on now every cop and his
dog attends!
Christchurch Tuesday last week 12 calls from public about 9 police cars
heading down Moorehouse avenue extremely fast. Request made to Wellington HQ
because you cannot deal directly with ChCh anymore and the reply came back
as "I doubt there were 9 police cars involved, It was a stolen car and the
suspect was apprehended" The official line, but the Wellington HQ had to be
prompted to comment they did not put out a formal press release.

So I just read that there was yet another Homicide in Kapiti of a 17 year
old........................I see that the encryption is putting a stop to
serious crime.... NOT. Its only putting a stop to the public maybe keeping
the system a little honest...............
The encryption was raced into place stating the security requirements of the
world cup. But one of the games was held in the, then and still not
encrypted, City of Dunedin...........Go Figure.

But our Boy Greg O'Connor (Rent a comment) will put on his clown suit and
steadfastly tell us encryption is critical for a modern police force. But
wait, there's more, We also need to Arm our officers. Watch this space.

The reason dunedin is getting done for another year at least is because

The big issue here is where is the money coming from? The country is in a
large recission according to business owners. Just my 2 cents worth.
